Dudus fled for Tivoli minutes after Golding was told about extradition
Former Tivoli Gardens strongman, Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke, reportedly hightailed it from his upper St Andrew home into Tivoli Gardens minutes after former Prime Minister Bruce Golding was informed of an extradition request for the now incarcerated don.
This was revealed during the fifth sitting of the Tivoli Commission of Inquiry at the Jamaica Conference Centre in downtown, Kingston on Monday.
Former head of the army, Major General Stewart Saunders said he was informed of Coke’s retreat into the former garrison community by former head of the police force Rear Admiral Hardley Lewin.
Saunders told the commission that Lewin requested that Coke be placed under surveillance of Coke when the extradition request came to light.
Saunders added that Lewin said the surveillance would allow for an easy nabbing of Coke and would avoid potential unrest.
